La Revista Universitaria de Historia Militar (RUHM) es una publicación científica semestral de alcance internacional dedicada a los estudios de la guerra, la violencia, el mundo militar y el orden público. De hecho, es la primera revista del mundo hispanohablante que dentro de este ámbito se rige por un sistema de evaluación por pares. La RUHM está abierta a la recepción de monográficos, artículos, ensayos bibliográficos y reseñas donde lo militar y/o la guerra en sus múltiples aspectos pongan el escenario u ocupen un lugar central en el análisis, con especial predilección por aquellos trabajos que se enmarquen en las coordenadas propias de la historia social y cultural. No hay restricciones ni por lo que respecta al marco temporal y espacial: la revista acepta trabajos desde la Prehistoria hasta la actualidad, y al mismo tiempo está interesada en abrir al máximo el espectro de escenarios geográficos objeto de estudio. La RUHM tampoco plantea limitaciones por lo que respecta al enfoque metodológico, siempre y cuando los textos se muevan en las perspectivas y debates más avanzados dentro de su campo. En este sentido, son bienvenidas las contribuciones desde el campo social, cultural, económico, político, militar, diplomático-internacional o de género, incluyendo los análisis desde perspectivas comparadas, transnacionales y globales. El objetivo de la revista es promover el diálogo entre expertos y expertas de diferentes partes del globo y con distintas tradiciones académicas a sus espaldas, de manera que cada número ofrezca una muestra actualizada de los principales avances en los campos de la historia militar y los estudios estratégicos. En última instancia se trata de poner en valor los estudios de la guerra e integrarlos dentro de los principales debates e inquietudes de la comunidad académica hispanohablante.
